Guess what rich kids of America, tomorrow is free Slurpee Day at all 7-Eleven locations in the US of A! As exciting as this news is, I don't give a frack because I live in New York and here 7-Eleven don't exist.

Boo. I want a free Slurpee! :)

Here are some fun Slurpee facts:

Winnipeg, Canada is generally thought to be the Slurpee capital of the world, due to their amazing Slurpee fanaticism.

At Slurpee, we call it a BrainFreeze. The scientific name for it is Sphenopalatine Ganglioneuralgia. Really.

American Slurpee is injected with air. Canadian Slurpee is not.

Every day more than 11.6 million Slurpee drinks are consumed around the world.

Only one private individual owns a bona fide Slurpee machine. The rest are in 7-Eleven.

Recently I had the good fortune to get a special look at a completely original song by two new & young artists. I've posted it here, along with their original artwork, for your listening pleasure.

The track's overall style, along with the singer's voice, reminds me of a favorite band of mine Uh Huh Her. Take a listen to their track below, "Away from here", and tell me if I'm crazy.

As for the first track, "Waiting" by Kate & Calder, I am impressed by its overall production quality and find its sound appealing. The only thing that disturbs me is the artwork. Though I hesitate to pass judgment on any kind of art, I don't feel like it lives up to the quality of the music. Though that's just one opinion.
